+ Princess is a fantastic character. I haven't read far enough in the comics to know how she is in them, but I love how she's characterized here. She's a bit ditzy, and that leads to an entertaining (but harrowing) trip when she wants to keep spending time with Eugene and the gang. But there are some pretty real emotions driving her actions. When she opened up about how lonely she was, I couldn't not love her. Her words hit very close to home for me.
+ Judith and Daryl bonding a bit was good to see. Judith's development so far reminds me of Carl's, but done better. She starts off innocent but strong, but they're slowly making her more accustomed to how hard the world is when they don't have peace and safety behind their walls. I used to be confused about why they didn't kill her off back at the prison in seasons three and four, but keeping her alive is probably one of my favorite changes the show has made compared to the comics. It's really paying off.
+ Negan and Lydia. I don't have much to say, but it's a really interesting dynamic since Negan killed Alpha, and Lydia hated her but also still loved her, being family and all.
- It feels like there was an episode cut between the last one and this one. The last episode ended with everyone at Alexandria, and Daryl letting Carol in the gates. Now, everyone is suddenly holed up at a hospital somewhere (seriously, what town/city is that supposed to be, and how did the group know of it and plan to go there?), while Beta and the Whisperers have invaded Alexandria. I'm guessing the Alexandrians caught wind of his attack and left in time, but they don't show or explain anything about what happened between these episodes, so it's just a bit jarring.
- They really didn't even try to hide the fact that that the hospital is the same place they filmed at in season 5A. I recognized it the first time they showed it this episode. Took me out of the moment.
- I know this one's just because of current circumstances and not because it was planned, but this wasn't a great episode to temporarily end the season on. There's no sense of resolution to anything going on in the story, and it was definitely one of those episodes that mainly serves to set up the next one. Doesn't help that there wasn't a preview of the season finale afterwards this time, but again, I understand why. It's just a crappy situation that's out of their control right now.
